Time to bust out the crazy eyes…

Flash Fury has been another smash success. Now that we’ve got a few of these contests under our belt, it’s clear that the competition is getting even fiercer. This was by far the most difficult judging we’ve had to do. So much fury. You people should maybe think about talking to a therapist…

Given so many great entries, we’ll give a shout-out below to a few of the authors whose entries we loved, but who simply didn’t quite make the final cut. We had scores of strong entries, and we even had a good 35 pieces or so that knocked our socks off, but we had to whittle that down considerably. It was grueling to cut stories we loved. You all are bastards.

The Flash Fury issue will run late tomorrow (Wednesday, July 15th) and will feature our three cash prize winners along with the honorable mentions that round out our incredible Top 10. All prize winners and honorable mentions will also be featured in our Prize Winners print anthology, which we hope to have available by September 1st.
